To clarify, the column is called "Scripta Manet". It might be better to write a column for this about such publishing ventures in general, and CDF being bad, then giving *several* "good" examples - not all affiliated with Sage. Otherwise it's too much like an advertisement, not necessarily appropriate for a column in the Notices. But the idea of pointing this danger out is good. -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
